The Sponsors that attended the Banquet
Pheasants forever is a nonprofit conservation organization founded in 1982 in response to the continuing decline of the ring-necked pheasant population. Pheasants Forever is dedicated to the protection and enhancement of pheasant and other upland wildlife population through habitat improvement that benefits farmers and wildlife alike.
Pheasants Forever is fortified by a unique system of county chapters that provide incentive for sportsmen and women to raise money: 100% of the funds raised by chapters , exclusive of membership fee, remain at the chapter level for local habitat projects.
Each Pheasant Forever chapter maintains local control of its habitat funds. Chapter leaders, with help from regional resource professionals, establish habitat restoration programs, customized to meet the needs of upland wildlife in their area. This enables people who belong to and support Pheasants Forever to see the direct results of their contributions.
Pheasants Forever's streamlined method of converting dollars into habitat is the underlying reason for the rapid growth and success of the organization. Since 1982, the organization has grown to include:
 |
Over 3 million members, in 600+ chapters, Nationwide |
|
Chapters completing over 25,000 projects annually, including habitat restoration projects, public awareness and education programs, and land management policy changes |
|
More than 4,000 educators promoting conservation through the Leopold Education Project. |
Pheasants Forever has come a great distance in a few short years, and prospects for the future are excellent. Jeff Finden, Pheasants Forever's Executive Director, is optimistic: "Our ten-year goal is to impact at least one million acres of land for pheasants. With the support and awareness that we have received so far, I know we can do it."
Pheasants Forever exists with our seed and your donations of land use for habitat, and time to help us with planting when possible.
